You can scramble down to the evac boats and launch in 3 minutes.

In a North Sea Storm? For how long? If so, I stand corrected.

“ In a North Sea Storm? For how long?”

Yes, in a North Sea storm. The boats literally look like lemons. No storm will sink it. You buckle in and go for a very rough ride.

The boats also launch when no helicopter would dare take to the air.

As for “how long”, I suppose that just depends. The North Sea isn’t exactly the Pacific Ocean. It’s smallish and boats are all over the place. You’re not terribly far from shore.
